Baghdad
(AsiaNews) - With a heart bleeding "for the innocent who die or
are driven from their homes," his thoughts turned to the "the
situation in Iraq, Syria and Gaza" and full sadness for the
timidity of the civilised world towards us" as well as the lack
of action by the international community, Louis Sako, patriarch of
Babylon of the Chaldeans (Baghdad) wrote to Card Philippe Barbarin,
archbishop of Lyon (France). His message will be heard today during a
march organised by the diocese in solidarity with Iraqi Christians,
whose fate has become tragic after the invasion of north central Iraq
by the Islamic Army, which set up an Islamic
Caliphate in Mosul, and issued in recent days an
edict calling on Christians either convert to Islam, pay the dhimmi
tax or abandon everything and flee.
